Login problems - Please read BEFORE posting about login problems

Now, if I only could figure out how this forum works and not have to re-login with every page I try to go to, other than reading threads, I'd be in good shape. ...Anyone?

Glad to hear of your success.

For the login problem, click the logout link. Then change your bookmarks from amdforums to forums.pcper. Also clear your browser cache. If that doesn't do it, post back and we'll dig up some links on this from the suggestions forum.

Re: Using Bartons, Tbreds and Palominos with the A7M266

Wow, that was fast. Links are already at forums.pcper.com, clearing cache didn't get it either. Just hit the search link and it said I wasn't logged in and presented the message box once more. Probaly should take this to another thread. Don't want to dilute this one. Perhaps you can delete this post once we get there?

Re: Login problems

Getting better. After reading a few threads, I logged out, closed browser, re-opened browser, went to cookies management, found an amdmb version (no pcpers versions at all), nuked it, closed browser, re-opened browser, logged in, FF asked if I wanted to save user/pass, said "yes". Now search and moving to threads go without re-login. However, logout, close tab, hit bookmark, username shows on login box but pass is blank as before. I have not found where the option is to auto-login, which works on other similar boards like guru3d. I must not be looking in the right place.

One other note, well, two actually, I just noticed that the fonts now appear in the compose screen (not in the preview re-edit screenhowever--but preview now works!). The other is that the time, as posted at the bottom of the pages, is *slow* by 20 minutes! Huh? An hour one way or another is understandable but portions of an hour? Perhaps this might be a clue?

Thanks for getting me this far.

THEN, after I posted this and worked doing some research, all returned to normal and I was back to re-logins for every screen. Why would it fail over time during theh same session?

Reason: Found a partial solution

Avast4 and ZoneAlarm Pro

This is for users of ZoneAlarm Pro (or other versions with the provacy tab) and Avast! 4 antivirus (home version, don't know if it applies to the pro version).

When Avast 4 installs it asks if you want to disable 'transparent proxy mode' because of a compatibility issue with ZoneAlarm. It says something about pages not being displayed properly. I've never had a problem with it (so I never selected yes) until now. Actually it started when I upgraded to Firefox 2.0.

Anyway, this has been causing these problems staying logged in for me.

To fix it (I couldn't find a setting inside the program so I did it this way) open avast4.ini (usually C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\avast4.ini) and find the line "ZoneAlarmCompatibility=0" and change the 0 to 1. This fixed everything for me.

Not only here either - I was having problems with Google's preferences 'sticking' also and that's fixed too, among others.
